Light field microscopy is a high-speed 3D imaging technique that records the light field from multiple angles by the microlens array(MLA), thus allowing us to obtain information about the light source from a single image only. For the fundamental problem of neuron localization, we improve the method of combining depth-dependent dictionary with sparse coding in this paper. In order to obtain higher localization accuracy and good noise immunity, we propose an inertial proximal gradient acceleration algorithm with dry friction, Fast-IPGDF. By preventing falling into a local minimum, our algorithm achieves better convergence and converges quite fast, which improves the speed and accuracy of obtaining the locolization of the light source based on the matching depth of epipolar plane images (EPI). We demonstrate the effectiveness of the algorithm for localizing non-scattered fluorescent beads in both noisy and non-noisy environments. The experimental results show that our method can achieve simultaneous localization of multiple point sources and effective localization in noisy environments. Compared to existing studies, our method shows significant improvements in both localization accuracy and speed.

Modeling Replicator Dynamics in Stochastic Games Using Markov Chain Method

In stochastic games, individuals need to make decisions in multiple states and transitions between states influence the dynamics of strategies significantly. In this work, by describing the dynamic process in stochastic game as a Markov chain and utilizing the transition matrix, we introduce a new method, named state-transition replicator dynamics, to obtain the replicator dynamics of a stochastic game. Based on our proposed model, we can gain qualitative and detailed insights into the influence of transition probabilities on the dynamics of strategies. We illustrate that a set of unbalanced transition probabilities can help players to overcome the social dilemmas and lead to mutual cooperation in a cooperation back state, even if the stochastic game has the same social dilemmas in each state. Moreover, we also present that a set of specifically designed transition probabilities can fix the expected payoffs of one player and make him lose the motivation to update his strategies in the stochastic game.
